I don’t, but they even let me play for a little bit.
Thursday morning pick up soccer in Holly Street Playground could use some more feet.

Note the lawn games provided by RVA Light beginning at 6:30 pm.
Tomorrow is a “Red Wednesday”, which means trash and recycling pickup.
Please go over what can be recycled.
NOTE: CVWMA (Central Virginia Waste Management Authority) has announced that all curbside recycling must now be INSIDE the CVWMA containers with lid closed. Items beside the container or on top of it will not be collected. In fact, incorrect setouts may not be collected at all. This is new as of July 1 for all our curbside recyclers, with the exception of townhomes/condos still using small bins. (And yes, this also applies to flattened cardboard boxes.)
Ideally, rolling recycling containers are stored and deployed in the back alleys along with trash cans. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup tomorrow night. More CVWMA information can be found at this link:

Henrico County Communications recently released an overview of CVWM’s recycling program.”CVWMA is responsible for reporting the region’s recycling rate to the state each year. The rate takes into account CVWMA’s residential recycling programs and those of corporations and industries. By weight, recycled materials represent about 58% of all discarded materials in the region. That’s more than double the 25% rate required by the state.”

Got World Cup fever?
Pine Street neighbor Michael Delano has scheduled a pick up soccer game at Holly Street Playground this coming Thursday morning from 8:15 am to 9:30 am.


Not near the neighborhood, downriver, but a nice reminder of how wonderful and fulfilling historic preservation can be.
